"It don't take much strength to pull a trigger. But try and get up every morning day after day, and work for a living. Let's see him try that. Then we'll see who the real tough is. The working man's the tough guy. Your father's the tough guy"Lorenzo Anello (Robert De Niro) in a "A Bronx Tale"

"START BY DOING WHAT'S NECESSARY; THEN DO WHAT'S POSSIBLE; AND SUDDENLY YOU ARE DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE."- St. Francis of Assisi

Through The Eyes Of God

Through The Eyes Of God

Author Carly Dugnere

They had freedom once,Until the earth I created in my imageWas butchered and plundered,Not considered worthy by man,Who destroyed the intricacies of its ecosystems,Desecrating the skeleton of my grand design.

Oh those animals,Those beautiful creatures in whom I wrought my dreams,Their resplendent coats shining red-orange,The colour of the shifting earth.They were the most glorious of my conceptions,Their stripes as rarefied as a human fingerprint,Camouflaged by both the sunrise and the sunset,A molten mix in which all of nature came together as one.

I made them master over all terrains,The chiaroscuro of creation pounding on the open grasslandsOr roaming the taiga in the frosted moonlight,Those long limbs, at once strong and exquisite,Pulling the strings of nature’s orchestra,The very music of my pride.

But the mighty huntress became the hunted,Her stealth no match for the bestial madness of menDetermined to show dominance over natureAnd the Almighty who created it.In doing so they have created their own hell,A world full of barbarism and loathing,Instead of love and beauty.Gone now the richness, the splendour,The majesty of the greatest,Pushed to the edge of existenceBy men who themselves are shackledBy the chains of their own hate.
